What Living Things Need

Science · Organisms & Life Processes · conceptual

Understand what plants and animals (including humans) need to survive: water, food, air, and suitable conditions

What mastery looks like

  • List the basic needs of animals: water, food, air, shelter
  • List the basic needs of plants: water, light, air, suitable temperature
  • Explain what happens if one basic need is missing (e.g. 'the plant wilts without water')

Check your understanding

If you ask What Living Things Need what a pet dog or a garden plant needs to stay alive, can they list the basic things like water, food, and air?
